snmptrapd v5.4.1 seems to have a memory leak much like snmpd in the previous release

I've ran some tests and snmptrapd in version 5.4.1 seems to be consuming system memory much like how snmpd had a memory leak in the previous release. I have been cron'ing this script every 15 minutes to justify my findings. I do a lot of trap catching so I'm not sure if that has any significance. I am running Ubuntu 8.04.2 (hardy) with kernel 2.6.24-24-sparc64-smp and I have 4GB of RAM.

#!/bin/bash
SHELL=/bin/bash
PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin
memoryUsage=`ps aux | grep "/usr/sbin/snmptrapd -Lsd -p /var/run/snmptrapd.pid" | grep -v "grep" | awk -F " " '{print $4}'`
dateTime=`date`
echo "SNMPTRAPD [$dateTime]: $memoryUsage% system memory used." >> /etc/snmp/snmptrapd.debug.dat
#eof

And the results are...

SNMPTRAPD [Wed May 13 00:00:01 EDT 2009]: 0.4% system memory used.
